UNDP India in collaboration with Hindustan Coca Cola Beverages Pvt. Ltd. (HCCBPL) & Patna Municipal Corporation has established a Plastic Waste Management & Processing plant at Gardani Bagh . This initiative is designed to minimize the impacts and risks to environment and human health, by enhancing sustainable Plastic Waste Management practices, through a socio-technical model (segregation/collection/ recycling).
The project’s main objective is to establish a more sustainable community led approach for integrated plastic waste management and efficient recycling. The systematic approach will also address better social security measures, job creation and impact livelihoods for the informal sector engagements. Mainstreaming Safai Sathis (waste pickers) will open new opportunities and lead to more sustainable ways of collection, segregation, processing and recycling of plastics. The project also introduces technology applications to integrate the waste supply value chain and build Cloud based digital governance and traceability.

The National Commission for Enterprises in the Unorganised Sector (NCEUS) was set up in 2004 by the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government as an advisory body and a watchdog for the informal sector. That same year, the Prime Minister’s Office asked the NCEUS to examine the National Policy on Urban Street Vendors. The policy’s objective was to provide urban street vendors with a supportive environment in which they can earn their livelihoods. After consulting various stakeholders, the Commission recommended a revision of the policy’s implementation mechanisms.
The NCEUS noted that the urban poor in most Indian cities worked in the informal sector because of a lack of jobs in rural areas, few employment opportunities in the formal sector, and low levels of education that restricted access to better-paying jobs. As unorganised sector workers, street vendors did not have government-assisted social security.

SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT THROUGH PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP MODELIAEME Publication
Objective: The aim of this paper is to consider the new capital city of A.P “AMARAVATHI” as a case study which is going to handle a huge population in upcoming years. Municipal solid waste is the key alert which would be soon knocking the city with managing and handling issues. Methodology: To study and evaluate the best fit PPP model that suits to the solid waste management as per the land fill estimate that can be implemented to generate revenue and manage solid waste effectively. Extent of land required for the solid waste management and population is estimated by exponential method growth to be generated for the projected year 2040. Findings: Results revels that the best model for solid is waste management for the new capital city AMARAVATHI is automated plastic separation module. The estimated cost and land required for implementing this projected is 260,00,000 and 4500sqm.Total amount of estimated solid waste generated in the year 2040 is 1079 tonnes/day. Applications: Control and management of the municipal solid waste in cities. This model on application could reduce the maintenance cost for the sectors handling and also generate the revenue on using model. Automated plastic separation module which can be undertaken on public private partnership model.
India’s recent stand on Smart City Development and involvement of various high income countries; initiates the talk of ideal variables for smart city evolution by our own standards. With a vision of Urban Governance for general livability, it becomes imperative to study these parameters and ensure the evolution of our own concept of a Smart City. Our spatial planning models based on unique factors such as Human Diversity, Physical-Social networks and ICT impact on urban fabric, City resilience, etc. make it all the more interesting to evolve a blueprint for Planning a Smart City.
The paper centers the infrastructural developments for the Smart Urban Development in India. The research helps us arrive at a general line of action for Urban Planning implications catering to the Infrastructure Sector, amongst others; thus affecting environmental, social and economic structure significantly. The study further finds the scope of progress, encouraged from various government policies for successful implementation of Smart City Development. It also allows a peek into future scenario of improvements and deliberations particular to Indian standards in consideration with the scenario of other countries.

This Study Intends to looks into the Development Plan and the development planning process of Ahmedabad and tries to understand the extent of environmental consideration in it. A Development plan envisages the entire town/urban area as a single unit and it is necessary to achieve overall
development of the town/urban area in an integrated and co-ordinated manner. Today Ahmedabad
is counted amongst the most polluted cities in India and this is mainly due to development planning
in Ahmedabad repetitively failing to incorporate environmental consideration and values in a
Development Plan. The other cases considered for the study like the London plan and the Delhi master Plan have managed to address most of their environmental issues in the Development Plan. London Plan is the most environmental sensitive Plan among the cases considered. Based on the lacuna identified in the present development planning process of Ahmedabad and by incorporating the lesson from the other Development Plans (London and Delhi), an attempt is made to evolve a framework and suggest changes in the present development planning process, in order to sensitize the entire development planning process towards environment.

Micro RNA genes and their likely influence in rice (Oryza sativa L.) dynamic ...Open Access Research Paper
Micro RNAs (miRNAs) are small non-coding RNAs molecules having approximately 18-25 nucleotides, they are present in both plants and animals genomes. MiRNAs have diverse spatial expression patterns and regulate various developmental metabolisms, stress responses and other physiological processes. The dynamic gene expression playing major roles in phenotypic differences in organisms are believed to be controlled by miRNAs. Mutations in regions of regulatory factors, such as miRNA genes or transcription factors (TF) necessitated by dynamic environmental factors or pathogen infections, have tremendous effects on structure and expression of genes. The resultant novel gene products presents potential explanations for constant evolving desirable traits that have long been bred using conventional means, biotechnology or genetic engineering. Rice grain quality, yield, disease tolerance, climate-resilience and palatability properties are not exceptional to miRN Asmutations effects. There are new insights courtesy of high-throughput sequencing and improved proteomic techniques that organisms’ complexity and adaptations are highly contributed by miRNAs containing regulatory networks. This article aims to expound on how rice miRNAs could be driving evolution of traits and highlight the latest miRNA research progress. Moreover, the review accentuates miRNAs grey areas to be addressed and gives recommendations for further studies.

Diabetes is a rapidly and serious health problem in Pakistan. This chronic condition is associated with serious long-term complications, including higher risk of heart disease and stroke. Aggressive treatment of hypertension and hyperlipideamia can result in a substantial reduction in cardiovascular events in patients with diabetes 1. Consequently pharmacist-led diabetes cardiovascular risk (DCVR) clinics have been established in both primary and secondary care sites in NHS Lothian during the past five years. An audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery at the clinics was conducted in order to evaluate practice and to standardize the pharmacists’ documentation of outcomes. Pharmaceutical care issues (PCI) and patient details were collected both prospectively and retrospectively from three DCVR clinics. The PCI`s were categorized according to a triangularised system consisting of multiple categories. These were ‘checks’, ‘changes’ (‘change in drug therapy process’ and ‘change in drug therapy’), ‘drug therapy problems’ and ‘quality assurance descriptors’ (‘timer perspective’ and ‘degree of change’). A verified medication assessment tool (MAT) for patients with chronic cardiovascular disease was applied to the patients from one of the clinics. The tool was used to quantify PCI`s and pharmacist actions that were centered on implementing or enforcing clinical guideline standards. A database was developed to be used as an assessment tool and to standardize the documentation of achievement of outcomes. Feedback on the audit of the pharmaceutical care delivery and the database was received from the DCVR clinic pharmacist at a focus group meeting.

ABOUT PROJECT
Plastic Waste Management programme in partnership
with Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages Private Limited
(HCCBPL) is a pan-India initiative, which is designed to
minimize the damage and risks posed to environment
and to human health due to uncollected plastic waste,
by enhancing sustainable waste management practices.
The initiative is supported by Ministry of Housing and
Urban Affairs (MoHUA) and State Municipal
Corporations. The project deploys a socio-technical
model (segregation, collection and recycling) to improve
use of resources, in line with Government of India’s Swachh
Bharat Mission. We place safai sathis (waste pickers from
informal sector) at the centre of this process, helping to
improve their socio-economic conditions by
institutionalizing them with respective governance
mechanisms of waste management.
The project aims to manage about 85,000 MT of plastic
waste as it expands to 50 cities with its Material
Recovery Facilities (swachhta kendras) and engage
with 30,000 plus safai sathis.

2. Our Implementing Partners in project cities form the fulcrum of swachhta kendra operations, while also extending socio-economic
support to safai sathis under the project mandate. They liaise with other partners such as City Municipal Corporations and State
Pollution Control Boards as part of modus operandi. Implementing partners also manage the data related to their work and support
digital integration of activities for traceability and accountability. Nidan is the Implementing Partner in Patna, maintaining the
swachhta kendra. For every 50,000 households, a Material Recovery Facility (MRF) or kendra is set up that recycles all types of dry
waste, collected with support from City Municipal Corporations (CMCs) or equivalent by the safai sathis. It aims to collect waste from
10 Wards with 10,000 households in each ward and then scale it up to the rest of the city.
IMPLEMENTING PARTNER
Information, Education and Communication forms a key element of this project’s scope of work. To induce behavioural change
towards sustainable plastic waste management practices among citizen communities, various workshops and awareness activities
are conducted in the alloted wards with RWAs, schools, colleges, and occupants of commercial spaces. These activities focus on
explaining the current scenario of waste generation and management, importance of waste segregation, and the impact that
individuals can make through their actions. The key underlying message of the IEC activities is ‘Reduce, Reuse, Recycle’.

3. SUPPORTING SAFAI SATHIS
Plastic Lao, Thaila Pao in Patna: In partnership with Nidan and Patna Municipal Corporation, the behavioural
change campaign was launched in Pataliputra Park, Kagna Ghat, Bihar Agro Expo and BIA exhibition in Gandhi
Maidan locations. Till the end of February, the campaign helped to collect 86.7 kgs of plastic waste, through the
general public who exchanged segregated plastic waste for cloth bags at the stall. The campaign stall was managed
by Mithinga Waste Management Pvt Ltd.
Under the project, safai sathis are provided with
personal protective equipment (PPE), such as
masks,gloves, and uniforms. They undergo
thorough training on operating various machines
and segregating various kinds of dry and plastic
waste at the centre.
Safai sathis are also imparted financial literacy and
